Editing Workers' compensation (section)

===Mexico===
The Mexican Constitution of 1917 defined the obligation of employers to pay for illnesses or accidents related to the workplace. It also defined social security as the institution to administer the right of workers, but only in 1943 was the [[Mexican Social Security Institute]] (IMSS) created.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.imss.gob.mx/|title=Sitio Web del IMSS|website=www.imss.gob.mx}}</ref> IMSS manages the Work Risks Insurance in a vertically integrated fashion, including registration of workers and firms, collection, classification of risks and events, and medical and rehabilitation services. A reform in 1997 defined that contributions are related to the experience of each employer. Public sector workers are covered by social security agencies with corporate and operative structures similar to those of IMSS.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Occupational injuries - Organization responsible for the statistics |url=https://www.ilo.org/ilostat-files/SSM/SSM8/E/MX.html |access-date=2024-04-02 |website=www.ilo.org}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Entornos Laborales Seguros y Saludables ELSSA |url=https://www.issa.int/gp/243467 |access-date=2024-04-02 |website=International Social Security Association (ISSA) |language=en}}</ref>
